Question: Consider the beam shown in ( Figure 1 ) . Suppose that w = 3 6 0 N / m . Figure 1 of 1

Consider the beam shown in (Figure 1). Suppose that w
=360 N/m
.
Figure1 of 1
An inclined surface extends upward and leftward so that the surface lies along the hypotenuse of a right triangle with its horizontal leg of 4 units, a vertical leg of 3 units, and a hypotenuse of 5 units. A straight horizontal beam is rocker supported on the inclined surface with its left end 'A' and pin supported on a horizontal surface with its right end B. A distributed load acts vertically downward on the beam. The load first increases linearly from 0 at point 'A' to w at the midpoint of the beam 3 meters away from the ends. Then it decreases linearly back to 0 at point B. The x y plane is shown. The x axis is directed to the right, and the y axis is directed upward.
